Yet another BSJ

I never tire of making these sweaters. This one is trimmed with I-cord but seamed at the shoulders with crochet. I used size 8 needles with a yarn that claims bulky weight but is probably more of a heavy worsted weight. I think this one will fit about 9-12 months at least. It measures 11 inches across the chest when flat (22 inches circumference) and 14 inches from neck to hem.

Great looking jacket! I am almost done EZ's Totem Jacket for me and I want to I-cord all around it but I can't figure out what part of the cast on "stitch" (at the bottom edge)to pick up in order to do the applied I-cord all around. What did you do? Anyone else have any suggestions?

Thanks! I tend to try and rip a lot. I am not sure what I ended up picking up in the final results. I did learn after this was finished that it might have been better to knit the I-cord from the wrong side rather than the right.
